Probably nothing. Charging refers to criminal offenses. This sounds like it may give rise to a civil malpractice suit, but unless there is some sort of intent to harm the patient, it probably does not have the requisite intent to be a crime.

Added: After notifying you of their intent to cease treating you, a healthcare provider is under no legal obligation to locate a substitute.

Consider this; when doctors retire and close their practice, they are under no requirement to find a replacement doctor for all of their patients - the patients must find a replacement doctor. Your situation is analogous to that scenario.
